Researchers from the National Institutes of Health report that disease worsened in mouse models of MS and Crohn's disease when mice were given sugary water, compared with mice given regular water.

The experiments indicate that sugar triggered activation of the immune messenger protein TGF-beta, which in turn spurred on the production of immune cells known to promote inflammation.
